TENT5C (Terminal nucleotidyltransferase 5C) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver and a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Multiple myeloma, Skin cancer, Colorectal cancer and 1 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Catalyses the transfer of one adenosine molecule from an ATP to an mRNA poly(A) tail bearing a 3'-OH terminal group and enhances mRNA stability and gene expression. Can also elongate RNA oligos ending with uridine molecule, provided that the sequence is adenosine-rich. Mainly targets mRNAs encoding endoplasmic reticulum-targeted protein. Location: Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome (UniProt). Locus 1p12 (HGNC).
